Manager Xu had met Rong Qingqing before, but at that time, she didn't care much about the shop's business. She wouldn't see them for their monthly reports, let alone check the account books.
All of these were taken over by Rong Shiqing's men, so all the money earned from the shops went into Rong Shiqing's pocket.
Some time ago, Rong Shiqing let Chen Shi and Rong Yiyi take over the business of several shops, and he even bossed them around.
Manager Xu didn't know what to say, but he could see that the young lady wanted to keep the shop under her control, which made him feel gratified.
It seems that the young lady has actually grown up after experiencing some things.
The lady can rest in peace now.
"This is our young lady, the true owner. Remember this: you must obey any orders she gives," Manager Xu said sternly to the group of shop assistants.
"Young Miss!" The waiters bowed respectfully to Rong Qingqing.
Rong Qingqing gestured slightly, "Everyone, there's no need to be so formal. Since you're all working here, from now on, we're all family. I won't be in the shop often, so you'll still have to listen to Manager Xu on matters big and small." She could tell that Manager Xu had managed Wangchun Tower very well, so she didn't need to interfere. She was only here today to show her face and let them know that she was the true owner of the shops.
"Yes, Miss." The group of waiters responded respectfully.
Upon hearing this, Manager Xu didn't say anything on the surface, but he was very happy inside. He could tell that the young lady approved of him.
"It's almost lunchtime, you can go and get back to work," Rong Qingqing said in a very friendly manner.
Upon hearing this, the workers withdrew and went about their business.
The restaurant had a variety of staff, including the chefs, totaling about fifteen people, which was quite a large number.
Working in a restaurant is not easy, and the hours are quite long.
After thinking for a moment, Rong Qingqing brought up the idea of a reward and punishment system with Manager Xu.
Manager Xu was taken aback after hearing this.
Such a system is unheard of.
There was a system of rewards and punishments for officials in the imperial court. Those who made meritorious contributions would be promoted or rewarded with gold and silver, while those who made mistakes would be demoted.
But I've never heard of such a system being used in restaurants.
The main problem is that most employers are unwilling to spend that money.
After all, the most abundant thing nowadays is labor, and it's all very cheap. You can hire strong laborers just by paying a certain fee.
Moreover, there are plenty of people who want this kind of job, so no one cares about the workers they hire.
"Young Miss doesn't really need to be so nice to them..."
“Uncle Xu, since we’ve hired them to work, it’s only right to give them benefits. If they do a good job, we can avoid a lot of trouble. And if they’re comfortable, they can stay longer. In this way, we can avoid personnel changes and save a lot of trouble.” Rong Qingqing interrupted him gently.
Seeing that she was serious, Manager Xu didn't object anymore, because he actually agreed with her suggestion.
I never expected the young lady to be so kind and considerate of her subordinates. It's truly a blessing for the restaurant.
His gaze softened as he looked at her, and he said with a smile, "Since you are so considerate of them, I will tell them this good news in a moment. They will be overjoyed. This way, they will be more motivated to do their work and can avoid making some unnecessary mistakes."
"Yes, that makes sense." Rong Qingqing nodded with a smile.
Afterwards, she looked at the restaurant's menu and found that many famous dishes from later generations were not available there. So she casually wrote down the recipes and instructions for a few dishes and handed them to Manager Xu.
